Resistance is generated by unmoving air on the path of the fall resisting being shoved out of the way by the falling object. So it's to do with the shape of the object than the mass. If it catches more air, it has more resistance, and vice versa.
Once you remove the air, and with it the air resistance, all objects fall similarly fast because gravity accelerates individual mass units equally.
The difference that can be sensed would be how much force it takes to suspend the object as a whole from falling. But, the amount of force it takes to suspend the same amount of unit mass from falling would be the same. That's the gravitational coefficient, which changes depending on how close you are to objects with mass. The more mass an object has, the more gravitational force/pull it applies to you. The sun for example, is so massive it pulls the earth to stay in orbit around it.
Oh, and it doesn't matter how many objects are being pulled, they all get the same pull if they're the same distance from the object that is pulling them.
And by the same distance, usually it's simplified to the distance to the center of mass of the object. Spheres, presumably like the earth and many other planets and stars, have a center of mass right in the middle.
So interestingly, if you somehow could go to the center of the earth, and both not die and can move freely like a ghost through the iron core, it should feel like zero gravity.
Though maybe if you're a ghost you'd feel zero gravity anywhere since you're floating, and also because you don't have any mass.
or wait, light particles has no mass but they still are pulled in by blackholes.
would ghosts also be pulled into blackholes?
